The resident CCIE on our project told me he used C from your list. He said
it's more difficult to set up with analog lines, but the behavior of
routing, etc. is the same regardless of whether the carrier lines are analog
or digital. He basically said if you can figure out how to set up the analog
stuff, real ISDN should be a snap.
